Sorry for a slightly OT question but I'm a total newbie on the USA carrier services.
What are the options for premium rate services in the USA - how much do the numbers cost each month? Are there better providers/vendors than others? We have an application that I was looking to fund via the Iowa termination arbitrage but that doesn't look like it is going to work out. So I'm looking for alternative ways to fund the application. We would only require 1 number. Regarding minutes it's a total unknown; * I'm guessing that each location might have about 2 people interacting on average 50% of a 9 to 5 day. * If we rolled out 5 locations as a trial - if projected application drew the volume of interaction we are expecting we would then expect to roll out to 20 new locations each month. So 12,000 minutes per month initially for 3 month trial then growing at 48,000 minutes a month logarithmically each month thereafter. I would estimate 95% of all calls will be delivered via mobiles (if that makes a difference to the termination arbitrage charges) as the 'locations' will be in public spaces. Does anyone have some preferred vendors they would recommend? My issue is that I'd like each 5 minute interaction to top out at a fixed amount so people participating in the interactions on their mobile don't get 'sticker' shock when they see the bill (which is why I was hoping to fund it on arbitrage long distance calls alone with no premium rate services).
